Drauizzg They Deeply Impzie Us . . . Each year We traditionally set aside this page to those members of our faculty who have completed their classroom work and are now stepping into a new world of retirement. We wish them well. It has been an honor and a privilege to those of us who sat in their classrooms and were permitted to absorb some of their wisdom. Some day their words of guidance and understanding of our problems will be recalled to our minds. Today we are too close to them to appreciate their efforts, tomorrow we will truly see them as they put forth their best to help us. For them the passing bell, the busy halls, the trying questions, and the bashful pupil will be passe. We pray that the green pastures of retirement will be their's to enjoy for many many years, and that now they may do the things they have put off so long because of the pressure of classroom duties. Good luck and may God be with you. page sei enteeu

Through the teaching of composition, grammar, spelling, literature, public-speaking, and letter-writing, these efforts are rewarded. Classes in speed-reading, remedial reading and journalism round out the English program. Teach Us Our Language . . FRANK IC. AYI-IRS BLANCHE L. BURKE EUGENE fYiR0SS!VIAN LOUISE W.
